Tampax Ad

Super fun news! I was contacted by Tampax to be part of their new campaign about stand out girls.
They wanted to feature three creative, unique, real women with their art. A street artist, yarn bomber, and balloon artist. It's the first time they've ever used real women in their ads instead of models!
I loved the whole idea of the campaign and was excited to be a part of it.

I flew out to LA and started decorating the streets!

In addition to the ad, we also made a super fun commercial. I just love the music!

This is going to sound funny, but I actually came to your blog from seeing that commercial. I watched it and thought, "I have to look up this gal and learn more about her!"

A quick online search and I came to your blog. And, I found your shadow street art and pretty much fell head over heals for those pictures. So, thanks to Tampax I found your blog, and the pictures of your shadow friends street art. =)

Great job, Katie, the add is fantastic but.. don't you think that it's a pitty that we, the women & girls, have to "hide" our period? I mean, come on, I don't understand how it's possible that we feel shame for something so important or even worst, that we have to do like if nothing is happening when our needings in those days are really different... we are not the same in every stage of the period, and it looks important to me not to hide it anymore and try to make everybody understand it.

I ADORE THIS. best ad campaign ever, tampax! I just love your work and your exuberance for life, Katie. If I'm ever having a bummer day, I know I can count on your artwork and sweet Moo kitty and bright, happy colors to cheer me up!! Thank you for being such a ray of sunshine in my life (and for many others, I'm sure) :) you are doing beautiful ad important things with your life - and I love how you remind everyone else they're doing the same!You are the best. And you're adorable. And congratulations :) :)

Fabulous! Fabulous! What an exciting opportunity, and also gives a lot of hope to all of us who spend way too much time blogging, hopefully we too will have fabulous opportunities like this offered to us in the future!!

Ok. Got it. I personally don't use said brand for my own strong reasons but I certainly wont use this forum to Debbie Down on Katie's parade.It's a super cute commercial! And so inspiring that Katie got the opportunity simply by doing what she loves. How awesome!Period. (No pun intended.)

So bad we do not have so lovely commercials in france! i would like to know what was the title of the song, it is a very cute love song! and congratulations katie; i love your universe and everything you made! it make me smile! Alessia

I used to constantly read you blog and look at your pictures and then I stopped reading blogs and forgot about your lovely one!Was reading Teen Vogue the other day and saw the ad and thought, 'I think I know who that is'!
